Server problem?

[Lethal Carnivine]

Have we gotten another server transfer or something, because it seems as though a LOT of people can't log on.

I myself think it's too many people trying to log on at once

 

[Zhen Lin]

Is there a specific error message they get?

Do these users have special characters in their username? (There has recently been a change in how these are handled.)

Tney get the 404 server not found message.

 

[Archaic]

There's a DNS issue currently impacting a number of our members (including myself for a while there). Zhen's got a workaround up that should fix things for some people. We expect the issue to be fully fixed within the next day or two max.

 

[Zhen Lin]

The problem should be fixed properly now.

Note that there's a difference between 404 errors and domain not found errors. In Firefox 3, the message for the latter is "The browser could not find the host server for the provided address." (emphasis added)
